For example, when the Cherohala highway was built in North Carolina, it was discovered that the highway was too wide for the northern flying squirrels to glide over. So, pieces of PVC pipe were attached to the top of poles on both sides of this highway. A squirrel gliding over this ...
Anecdotal data gathered from many populations suggest that southern flying squirrel (SFS, Glaucomys volans ) use of the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker's (RCW, Picoides borealis ) nest and roost cavities may negatively affect RCW populations. We conducted a controlled experiment to determine ...
Thus, removing flying squirrels from nest clusters did not reduce the future probability of a flying squirrel occupying either a cavity or a cluster.These results indicate a need to re-evaluate flying squirrel removal as a management technique to enhance Red-cockaded Woodpecker reproduction. 展开 ...
Many mascots have bodies that are, shall we say, rotund. Not Nutzy, a muscular superhero flying squirrel who has clearly put in many hours at the gym (or wherever it is that squirrels work out). Although Nutzy may look stern and authoritative at first glance, he is fun-loving, friendly...
Among factors that may limit population size, nest site is generally considered important for cavity-nesting species. We tested the hypothesis that nest-site availability limits population size in ...

The northern flying squirrel is a nocturnal sciurid that inhabits coniferous and mixed coniferous-deciduous forests.The Northern flying squirrel is found across the top of North America, from Alaska to Nova Scotia, south to North Carolina and west to northern California....
